Database Encryption

["Scott, Richard" <Richard.Scott () bestbuy com>]

Greetings all,

After doing some research, it seems that there are a lot of commerce sites
hosing plain text data in their databases held in DMZ.  I recall that there
are a few companies planning to release "network cards" to allow on the fly
encryption for database content?  Does anyone have any more information?

It seems that they would have to work at the RPC level, intercepting calls
from developed applications??

Cheers
